Gas price increase, the second episode

I still hope that Nordstream 2 will eventually be granted an operating permit ...

I harbor the opposite hope. The current infrastructure is sufficient for gas supply. The Nordstream pipeline does not solve a gas price problem, but only creates discord without any particular benefit.

Short info on the topic of basic supply: According to comparison portals c*ck*4 and ver*v*x, my basic supply is supposedly currently the cheapest option. According to the homepage of the basic supplier, it looks different... Price per kWh was about 9 cents until 11/1/21, about 13 cents from 12/1/21, and from today, 12/15/21, a hefty 21.7 cents!!!

P.S.: Due to an internal error by E.ON (have called customer service 9 times by now), I apparently fall into the basic supply :-/ E.ON ignores all calls and letters (registered mail) and has been sitting out the matter since early November.

I harbor the opposite hope. The current infrastructure is sufficient for gas supply. The Nordstream pipeline does not solve a gas price problem, but only creates discord without any particular benefit.

And I see it exactly 180 degrees opposite to you....

The Nordstream pipeline does not solve a gas price problem, but only creates discord without any particular benefit.

That would contradict the prevailing market practices.

The discord exists only in the minds of those who see their accustomed profits slipping away due to the charges for transit. Because with Nordstream, you bypass the beneficiaries and could even reduce the supply volumes via Yamal or even shut down the outdated Soyuz.

: It feels good to be able to view things differently in a peaceful way. That is currently somewhat lacking in other areas.

Yesterday we received the 3rd price increase within a quarter of a year!! „… The consumption price will increase by 5.39 cents as of 1.2.22 um 5,39 Cent…“ However, as existing customers we receive a gross loyalty bonus of 4 cents. So for us, a price increase of 1.39 cents. The loyalty bonus is initially limited until the next price increase (at the latest until 31.12.22).
